Maruti Suzuki's eVX Electric Vehicle Continues Testing Ahead Of Debut

Maruti Suzuki's upcoming electric vehicle, the eVX, has been recently spotted testing ahead of its expected debut later this year. The eVX will be Maruti’s first electric vehicle for Indian markets and is also expected to spawn a Toyota-badged derivative going forward.

The heavily camouflaged test mule revealed little about the styling though a closer look suggested an ADAS sensor module was incorporated into the front bumper. The sensor module seemed to be positioned between the numerplate and grille. This would make the eVX the first Maruti in the market to feature ADAS functions.

Originally shown as a concept at the 2023 Auto Expo, Suzuki showcased the eVX on the global stage at the Tokyo Motor Show 2023 as a more near-production model. Compared to the concept, the testmule wears more production-oriented headlamps with the unique Y-shaped LED lighting missing on the test mule. The production model retains the core silhouette of the concept but features a more conventional front fascia with open air inlets low down on the bumper. The wheels are simple, departing from the aerodynamic ones seen in the concept.
